@pedant: Not boring then. *grin*

Missy

Patience was never my strong point, but are any of you finding it hard to wait for the Christmas Special? Or is it just me?

Missy

@pedant: Thank you so much for letting me/us know. Puro and I never seemd to hit the right note, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t think of her and son.

@ichabod: Of course we do.

Missy

@nerys. My eye is still sore, but the soreness goes away after a while, I still wear dark glasses everywhere – even indoors- or both eyes become very tired.

@missrori: Thank you for that. What fun, although I’m surprised that PC and neither of the writers were there too?Forgive me if I seem to shorten sentences, but it’s a strain looking through…[Read more]

I have hesitated to ask, but it isn’t idle curiosity. If I didn’t care, I wouldn’t ask.

Does anyone know how the puro family is fairing?

Missy

@mudlark;

Thank you muchly. The deed is done, and although things are still slightly ‘off’ colours are astonshing!

I have to wear dark glasses for at least a week, a patch in bed at night (?) and three lots of drops four times a day .

Print is still blurred and I mustn’t bend over or do anything strenuous.

I watched DW last night (how unusual)…[Read more]

@mudlark:

Well, blow me down! I too am booked for cataract surgery – if the hospital ever rings to infom me what time I should make an appearance – tomorrow! Both eyes need attention, so the other eye will be attended to on the 1st. February.

Small world – innit.

As to Jammie Dodgers, I like them but wouldn’t crawl across broken glass to get to…[Read more]

What joy! We have just found a sweet shop that stocks Jammy Dodgers!

It also stocks many English/British sweets, that my OH and I had forgotten about.

Pontefract Cakes for one.

Though I’d share this with you. *smile*

Missy

@ichabod

On can only hope! Fingers crossed.

No! Not getting it. Really not my area.

Thank you anyway pedant.

Missy

Just pray that Peter Capaldi is the Doctor, for at least one more series.

Missy

@ichabod:

The guy can *act*. 

Indeed he can. I find that unlike the other three doctors – as much as I liked them – PC is able to get under my skin and really make me think. Yes, I know, it’s Steven Moffat’s words, sometimes Mark Gatiss too, but the words have to be delivered with just the right tone of voice, facial expression and comviction. f…[Read more]

@mudlark:

As much as I am fascinated by/with Physics, I cannot abide Mathematics.  Bit of a problem isn’t it.

I tried reading the aricle (thank you for that mudlark) but it was/is all beyond me. I shall try again one morning when I am more awake.

Missy

@ichabod;

Spotonski!

I missed out Laurence Fox  – Lewis – and Shaun Evans – Endevour.

Oh, those high cheekbones.

Missy

@janetteb:   I think we have had enough depressing news of late. Certainly don’t need to hear that P.C. is thinking of stepping out of the Tardis. I am hoping that he will do at least one series with Chibnall if not two or ten..

Vote me in on that one. However, should such a disaster occur, I shall watch the new Doctor and see what I think. I am…[Read more]

Everyone.

I recently watched a comic.com from the USA.  On the panel were Matt Smith, Jenna Coleman and Alex Kingston.

They all had plenty to say and I enjoyed listening to them, but I thought that Alex (River) explained the series popularity in very simple terms.

She made it very plain that she is a huge admirer of Steven Moffat, whom she c…[Read more]

@mudlark:

That was how I saw it too. He couldn’t kill a child, but at least he could instill  ‘mercy’ into the boy.

Missy

@ichabod;

At last! I couldn’t get on to the forum – again! Hence my absence.

Quite understandable, but it isn’t that I ‘fancy’  ( as the doctor would say) BC or the others, just am drawn to their build and shape of their face.

Though I’d clear that up. *grins*

Missy.

@winston:  You have  said it all. We all love him, especially this Doctor.

Missy

@ichabod: I haven’t seen this film, so cannot judge. No, I haven’t seen Timothy Dalton in Penny Dreadful. the last thing I him in was Doctor who and he still looked good.

Was there a discussion about Doctor Strange? Blimey, I missed it. Most of the reviews I read – most, not all – thought he was well cast as the Doctor , as do I. he certainly…[Read more]
